Default New HIC Visor Installed

I just installed my new HIC roof wing and decided to share some pics.
The quality of this visor is really nice. It's an easy installation with
3M VHB tape. I also took a picture of the logo that's mounted to the
top side. Next on my list is Ichiba Version 2 spacers and a little interior
clean up. I'm still deciding on whether I want to remove my trunk spoiler
and add 97+ tails. Anyways, let me know what you think

97+ side skirts, Vertex front lip? Not sure, I've only had this car for 2 months and it was already installed. It needs to be repainted though. I need a rear lip at some point. So many things on my to do list. Here's a better picture of the front:

What are you currently using for installation? Do you keep applying new double sided tape every few weeks?

Ebay, just type Lexus SC visor and you'll find it ~ $99.00

I still have it with new double sided tape I only had the spoiler for about a month at most.. but I had to redo the tape already and its starting to peel off again. I think if you make sure you have the least flex you might be okay. -_-

looks HOT, they match the wheels perfectly!
and what i did was for the sides, which kinda popped off, I stacked 2 double stick tapes on top of each other so that the visor would clear the black trim that goes around. it woulnd't budge at all ever since.
